Bronsted-Lowry defines an acid as a proton (H+) donor and a base as a proton acceptor. This theory extends beyond aqueous solutions and includes many organic and inorganic reactions. For example, NH3 is a Bronsted-Lowry base because it can accept a proton, forming NH4+. Understanding these definitions underpins acid–base equilibrium and buffer design.
